CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO GLOBAL MARKETING SUMMARY A. Marketing is an organizational function and a set of processes for creating, communicating, and delivering value to customers and for managing customer relationships in ways that benefit the organization and its stakeholders. A company that engages in global marketing focuses resources on global market opportunities and threats. Successful global marketers such as Nestlé, Coca-Cola, and Honda use familiar marketing mix elements – the four Ps – to create global marketing programs. B. Marketing, R&D, manufacturing, and other activities compose a firm’s value chain. The value equation (V =B/P) expresses the relationship between values and the marketing mix. C. Global companies also maintain strategic focus while pursuing competitive advantage. The marketing mix, value chain, competitive advantage, and focus are universal in their applicability, irrespective of whether a company does business only in its home country or has a presence in many markets around the world. However, in a global industry, companies that fail to pursue global opportunities risk being pushed aside by stronger global competitors. D. A firm’s global marketing strategy (GMS) can enhance its worldwide performance. The GMS addresses several issues. First is the nature of the marketing program in terms of the balance between a standardization (extension) approach to the marketing mix elements and a localization (adaptation) approach that is responsive to country or regional differences. Second is the concentration of marketing activities in a few countries or the dispersal of such activities across many countries. Companies that engage in global marketing can also engage in coordination of marketing activities. Finally, a firm’s GMS addresses the issue of global market participation. E. The importance of global marketing today can be seen in the company rankings compiled by the Wall Street Journal, Fortune, Financial Times, and other publications. Whether ranked by revenues or some other measure, most of the world’s major corporations are active regionally or globally. The size of global markets for individual industries or product categories helps explain why companies “go global”. Global markets for some product categories represent hundreds of billions of dollars in annual sales; other markets are much smaller. Whatever the size of the opportunity, successful industry competitors find that increasing revenues and profits means seeking markets outside the home country. 1-1 Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. F. Company management can be classified in terms of its orientation toward the world: ethnocentric, polycentric, regiocentric, or geocentric. These terms reflect progressive levels of development or evolution. An ethnocentric orientation characterizes domestic and international companies; international companies pursue marketing opportunities outside the home market by extending various elements of the marketing mix. A polycentric worldview predominates at a multinational company, whose country managers operate autonomously, adapt the marketing mix. When management moves to integrate and coordinate activities on a regional basis, the decision reflects a regiocentric orientation. Managers at global and transnational companies are geocentric in their orientation and pursue both extension and adaptation strategies in global markets. G. The dynamic interplay of several driving and restraining forces shapes the importance of global marketing. Driving forces include market needs and wants, technology, transportation and communication improvements, product costs, quality, world economic trends, recognition of opportunities to develop leverage by operating globally, and innovation and entreprenuershp. Restraining forces include market differences, management myopia, organizational culture, and national controls such as nontariff barriers (NTBs). OUTLINE OF THE BOOK The book is divided into five parts. Part 1: An overview of global marketing and the basic theory of global marketing. Part 2: The environment of global marketing. Part 3: Approaching global markets (global strategy) Part 4: The global context of marketing mix decisions Part 5: Issues of corporate strategy and leadership in the 21st century. LEARNING OBJECTIVES 1-1 Use the product/market growth matrix to explain the various ways a company can expand globally. 1-2 Describe how companies in global industries pursue competitive advantage. 1-3 Compare and contrast a single-country marketing strategy with a global marketing strategy (GMS). 1-4 Identify the companies at the top of the Global 500 rankings. 1-2 Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. 1-5 Explain the stages a company goes through as its management orientation evolves from domestic and ethnocentric to global and geocentric. 1-6 Discuss the driving and restraining forces affecting global integration today. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1-1. What are the basic goals of marketing? Are these goals relevant to global marketing? Marketing activities represent an organization’s efforts to satisfy customer wants and needs by offering products and services that create value. These goals are relevant in virtually every part of the world; however, when an organization pursues market opportunities outside of its home country (domestic) market, managers need an understanding of additional conceptual tools and guidelines in order to do business in these other countries – in other words, to create value and satisfy consumer needs and wants. 1-2. What is meant by “global localization?” Is Coca-Cola a global product? Explain. The phrase “global localization” represents an attempt to capture the spirit of the rallying cry for organizations in the 21st century, namely, “think globally, act locally, and manage regionally.” Most students will agree that Coca-Cola is a global product by virtue of the fact that it is available in more than 195 countries in red cans bearing the distinctive signature style. It must be noted, however, that customer service efforts are adapted to the needs of particular markets (for example, vending machines in Japan). Thus, Coca-Cola is both global and local. 1-3. A company’s global marketing strategy (GMS) is a crucial, competitive tool. Discuss some of the global marketing strategies available to companies. Give examples of companies that use the different strategies. Strategies include global branding (Coca-Cola, Apple), product design (McDonald’s restaurants and menu items), positioning (Harley-Davidson), packaging (Gillette Sensor), distribution (Benetton), customer service (Caterpillar), and sourcing (Toyota, Gap). 1-4. UK-based Burberry is a luxury fashion brand that appeals to both genders and all ages. To improve Burberry’s competitiveness in the luxury goods market, CEO Marco Gobetti must update the marketing program put in place by his predecessor. The strategy should address key markets that Burberry will participate in, as well as the integration and coordination of marketing activities. Research recent articles about Burberry and write a brief summary that outlines Burberry’s GMS. 1-3 Copyright © 2020 Pearson Education, Inc. Student answers will vary, but all should contain the new challenges to the company’s GMS including the declining popularity of department stores in the US and the

  • A Study of the Ford Motor Company
    Business Value Group LLC A Study of the Ford Motor Co Turnaround 2010 Keys : Quotes from Participants Key message or take-away Business Value Group LLC Patrick Hehir, September 2010 It is said that a man is not defined by his challenges in life but rather by his response to them. The same could be said of communities and organizations, including public companies. During the deep global recession of 2008, a myriad of companies and industries in the USA struggled to survive. Although it has been recently announced that the recession is over, its effects persist and there is significant fear that there will be a second recession that will hit late 2010 and into 2011. Given the stubbornly high level of unemployment, some even suggest that the U.S. may in fact be in a depression. During this time, our key financial and automotive business sectors ended up needing U.S. government aid to help them navigate through the toughest patch of the downturn. However there was a notable exception within the US auto industry, ONE company that never asked for or received any direct monies from the government, and that was The Ford Motor Company. Having never asked for or taken a dollar of support from the US government, Ford reported a profit of $2.7 Billion on January 29 ,2010, for fiscal year 2009, after having had a loss of $14.6B in 2008.1 This was Ford’s largest pretax operating profit in six years. “The company also outsold GM in February 2010, something that had not happened in more than 50 years, aside from several months in 1998 when GM workers were on strike.”2 In April Ford reported a profit of $2.1 Billion for quarter one of 2010 a big reversal from year ago period where it had a loss of $1.4 Billion.

Let's not just talk about sustainability: let's be sustainable, in our own way and on a larger scale. After bringing together over 40 speakers from all over the world, with outstanding topics towards sustainability at the conferences in Badia and Salina, CARE's is going to propose two new CARE's Talks for the Winter Edition 2018. In past editions, we got to know the facts and commitments to sutainability of small realities. This year, we want to compare them with big realities, multinational companies and broad-minded projects. We want to go beyond the "dish" by giving voice to challanges involved outside of the restaurant and in responsible resource management for future generations, in order to promote the concept of eco-sustainable development. Some of our sponsors (partner testimony) will be given the opportunity to explain why they support CARE's and to present their sustainability projects and/or their commitment to reducing waste. In this way, we intend to focus on the contribution of major multinational companies to sustainable development.
